A Swarm of Staples

As you enter what appears to be a store room for copy and office supplies, you're suprised when a small, feisty man challenges you to a duel. A stapler duel. With an inordinate number of exclamations along the lines of "ho!" and "ha ha!" and "take that, you scoundrel!" the air becomes thick with flying metal shrapnel.

You reach for your trusty Swingline, but no! Some vile fiend has stolen your stapler. (Or perhaps you never had one, which amounts to nearly the same thing.) There's no time to burn the building down in revenge, what with the hail of staples stinging your flesh. There's nothing to do but retreat from the onslaught until you can arm yourself properly.
